A written paper on the front door
of A. Mayors establishment, 211
Ohio street, this morning, conveyed
the information that the stock of goods
fixtures, etc., was in the hands of the
First National Bank and r. N. Nor.
row, mortgages. The blue curtains
were drawn tightly down, and the
usual busy appearance of the place
was conspicuous by Its absence.
Investigation disclosed the fact that
two chatiel mortgages, with power of
sale were filed this morning in the coun-
ty recorders Office, one at half-past ten
o'clock, by the First National Bank,
and the other al five minutes to noon,
by Robert N. Morrow. The first mort
gage was executed to the bank by A.
Mayer to secure the payment of
81 400, the mortgage covering all
the stock of goods at 211 Ohio street,
consisting of millinery, jewelry, fancy
goods and notions.
There were four notes, as fol-
lows.
One for $500, dated May IL, 1897,
payable to A. Mayer and Endorsed by
A. Mayer and /. b. Rosenthal 81 Co.,
due June 18th, 1887, the same having
gone to protest.
One for s400, dated June 6, 1887,
payable to A. Mayer and Endorsed as
before, due August s, 1887.
One for 5000, payable to order of
First National Bank, dated June 3,
1887, and due August 5, 1887.
One for $500, made payable to
the First National Bank, dated
May z, 1887, and due June Is, 1887.
The mortgage executed to r. N.
Morrow covered the store fixtures,
and is based on a note in Morrow's
favor, made by Mr.. Mayer for $40,
dated February 10, 1887, and due in
three months. Forty dollars of the
amount were paid this morning and
are credited on the mortgage.
Mr.. Morrow, for himself and the
bank, is in charge of the establishment
taking care of the stock and fixtures.
1t is said Mr.. Mayors assets amount
to about 81, 500, and his liabilities, the
principal portion of which is owed to
New York parties, to somewhere in
the neighborhood of $1,000. In his
trouble, he has the sympathy of
numerous friends and patrons of his
house.

TALKING ABOUT CHOLERA.


Cholera is most surely guarded
against by keeping the body clean
and welI-nourished, and the mind
equable and contented, says an
authority on the subject. Under
feeling, anxiety, overwork, exposure
to extremes of temperature, intemper.
ance in eating or drinking, ali tend to
reduce the resistance of the system to
the influence of any morbid poison,
and more especially that of cholera.
No diarrhea, or even lax condition
of the bowels, should be disregarded
while there is a single case of cholera
in the country. An attack of cholera
is usually preceded by loose, pain
less diarrhea, although less frequently
one may pass from apparently per-
feet health after a single dejec-
tiun into the state of cholera
collapse. But. as rule,
there is the premonitory stage above
indicated, and which may last from
one to FIVE days. Such attacks, if
promptly and properly treated, may
almost invariably be cured, but if
neglected, may develop into malig-
nant cholera.
The treatment requires first, abso-
lutte rest, and next a teaspoonful of
the following mixture every two
hours until the diarrhea is checked.
CrInrrpA NryryrpE
Aromatic sulphoric acid. One ounce
ParegurIc ........ Three ounces.
Dose-One teaspoonful in four teaspoon
fuls of water.
This is the simplest and most gener-.
ally useful combination and should be
kept ready fer use in the house. office,
store and workshop during the green
fruit season.
In addition to Ordina.
ry prudence in diet and drink,
especial care should be taken as to
the quality of drinking water used.
If Flat creek fluid, or the water from
a cistern is not known to be absolute
ly pure, add a teaspoonful of aromat.
ic sulphuric acid to one quart Of wa
ter. Epidemic of cholera have been
arrested, when every other means fail
ed, by using water thus calculated.
1t may be favored with lemons and
sweetened.
There is reason for believing that the
cholera poison is absolutely destroyed
by mineral acids. 1t would be well,
therefore, to confne the drink exclu-
sively to this mineral acid lemonade
so long as there is any danger of chol.
eraic attack. No other single precau-
ton is of so much Importance as this.

An Alleged Theft.

Constable Ellis r. Smith, of this
county, returned from Kansas City
last night, having in custody William
Hughes, who is charged by j. d.
Sprague with the theft of a buggy
from him some time ago. Smith
found Hughes in Kansas City. where
he now resides, and brought him
along, as stated, to answer the COM
plant. Hughes was taken from the
jail this morning, and not being ready
for trial, the case was continued to to-
morrow morning.
Hughes says that he bought a bug.
gy from Sprague for $40, agreeing to

with him at Dresden. The buggy was
smashed up and Hughes sold the re-
mains to a third party for 81. He
denies that he stole the buggy from

Hon. J. r. TUCKER AT YALE.-The COM
mencement exercises at Yale College yes.
terday were attended by Senator Evarts,
Chief Justice Waite, Gov. Lohnsbury and
other distinguished persons. Among the
honorary degrees conferred was that of Lii.
D. on Hon. J. R. Tucker. President Dwight
presided at the alumni dinner and intro
duced J. Randolph Tucker, of Virginia.
Mr.. Tucker spoke of the part taken by Vir.
ginia and Connecticut in the federal conven-
ton and of the pleasant relations which had
always existed between the two States, and
closed by extending Virginia's greeting to
Yale, which had been sent through him.
AS he sat down President Dwight rose and
said: "Ysle University and the State of
Connecticut extend the right hand offelow-
ship to old Virginia" Mr.. Tucker sprang
to his feet and, graspiug President Dwight
by the hand, attempted TO reply, but the
outburst of applause was so enthusiastic
that he stood several minutes, holding the
president by the hand, before he could be
heard. Mr.. Tucker thanked President
Dwight for his noble sentiment, and prayed
God to bless the union of Connecticut and
Virginia and Yale University. This ex
change of fraternal greeting, and the strik-
ing manner in which it was carried out,
created the greatest enthusiasm and most
favorable comment.

Its white patrons. How, then, can we
ssssil the South for continuing to draw

South is the South, aud because many
Northern people really believe they have
prescriptive right to sssail the South for any
and every conceivable thing, in and out oil
season, even though they be guilty OF the
very things for which they assail their South

most of the over5eers were Northern men,
and they were proverbially harder masters
than the owners of the slaves; and now
nothing is better known in the South tnan
the fact that the freedmen get along easier
with Southern than with Northern people,
for the simple reason that the former KNOW
ing their natural race delinquencies, make
allowances for them, which the latter 90
not do. But white people, whether in the
South or North instiuctively oppose the SO

THURSDAY EVENING. JUNE 80.

MANY REPUBLICAN newspapers are oe'

and prevent the increase of that surplus anu
9 possible consequent reduction in the cur
rency and stringency in the money market.
But would an extra session OF Congress DO

democrats have tried hard and frequently

circulation, but have always falied Decause
Of the united opposition of the republicans
and few so called protective democrats
The democrats were stronger in both those
Congresses than they will be in the next
one and as neither the republicans nor the
protective democrats have showed any dis'
nos;tion to withdraw their opposition to
radiation of the tariff, with its necessarily
CONSIGNMENT reduction Of the surplus there
ia no apparent reason for supposing That

more likely to effect the desired result than
the regular one to commence two months
later. Republican legislation caused anu con
tlpued the accumulation of the surplus In the
Treasury, and though the republicans are
now demanding the reduction OF that sur
plus, they refuse to reduce the tariff by
which that surplus is solely maintained, as
the internal revenue is expended in the pay

CONGRESSMAN WISE, in his interview

ouires constant, active and laborious WORK.

work.
